Interclub ROUND 1
We welcome the Mayor of Gawler, Brian Sambell, Tony Piccolo, State MP and David Fawcett Federal MP to the opening round of our 2007/08 season.  The Gawler Pétanque Club was incorporated in 2001 and has been slowly but steadily consolidating its position and growing since that time. Gawler has only recently started to compete at league level and has two members in the current state squad, Glenys and Stan Wilson.
Good luck to all players today.”

NO MORE THAN TWO TEAMS FROM A CLUB MAY SCORE POINTS IN A DIVISION.

Team positions are held by the CLUB. It is up to the Club to nominate which players fill that team.
In the case of a mixed team, the nominated team Captain holds the position.
So, if players miss a round, it is up to their club to arrange where they will play in the next round. 
A nominated member of the club is responsible for nominating teams to the Tournament Director before the event.
Club members who cannot form a team are to attempt to form a team with players from other clubs, but not to turn up at registration and expect the League to organise a team for them.   See Adrian for any further clarifications.
